Semaj asked this and I thought the answer was one worth sharing to remind those that maybe forgot or to inform those that maybe missed it the first time...

Since a few of the other forum users have expressed that they don't want my sig fig to remain dead, I was thinking of making Semaj Nagirrac become immortal, but still remain antagonistic toward your faction.

Having two opposing forces that can't die would make for an interesting story, but I can also see that making semaj nagirrac immortal would make everyone else want to make their characters immortal too.

What do you think?

Short answer: Yes.

Long Answer: There is a long standing history of The Immortals making even some of their staunchest enemies Immortal, if they have proven themselves worthy in battle. The reasoning being that despite propaganda to the contrary the only thing The Immortals are interested in is total warfare and the better the fight the better they like it. This view once learned by an Immortalized enemy has even seen some eventually join the Immortals. Others have fought against them. The Emperor even has four half brothers that have waged a never ending war since they rebelled against him. It's in the Wiki.

Of course every Immortal that can heeds the Emperors call to war but generally each group or individual is left to his own devices. Their drive to fight also means that like Genghis Khan the Immortals are truly Nomadic and although they may conquer Empires where ever they go and replace them with Immortal Law under the control of staunchly loyal mortal allies, usually as a means of raising new armies and making new weapons with which to fight, The Immortals themselves always move on over time, until eventually passing into myth. Many times the Emperor has abandoned conquered and defeated regions leaving everything to his mortal armies and set out with only the few hundreds of the Immortal Kin to lay waste somewhere else and start afresh gathering new forces from scratch. It's an acknowledged fact that boredom is the main factor for such actions.

Well the whole idea was that during the course of the Immortal War I would make every member Immortal eventually, for various silly reasons. The Emperor can be whimsical sometimes. If they suck they become wallies, if they're mental they become Maniacs or if cool they may even become elites. it depends on the group (Brikwars members) dynamic. For example, PedoNuker and all of his alias' will always be religated to being a wally while Tzan is Elite/Veteran. This was the real motivation behind the Sig-Fig thing I did. Not sure if you'll recall it.

Um, I think it's still in my head. I may have posted bits here or there. The Wiki is the best bet but I wouldn't bet on ...it.

Something about Immortal allies get their ruling cast annihilated if they fight other immortal Allies and if this persists then the entire civilization gets the good news with a blackhole generator on their capital, something like that. Oh, and no hiding moms, you know, the usual stuff any tyrant would ask for. Mostly it's left up to the allies to sort out since they do all the paperwork and stuff. It's when the emperor wants something made or done or whatever that the allies all need to start paying attention.
